Technical Definition

The register prefix Temperature at address 1037 is used to monitor prefix Temperature on the Modbus Solax.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit: C
  • Access: Read Only

How to Read (Python pymodbus)

Use this code snippet to read this specific value via RS485:

from pymodbus.client.sync import ModbusSerialClient

client = ModbusSerialClient(method='rtu', port='/dev/ttyUSB0', baudrate=9600)
client.connect()

# Read prefix Temperature (Address: 1037)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=1037, count=2, unit=1)

if not result.isError():
    print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
    print("Error reading register")

client.close()

Integration (Home Assistant)

Paste this into your configuration.yaml:

- platform: modbus_controller
  name: "prefix Temperature"
  address: 1037
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "C"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Temperature. Units: Degrees Celsius (°C). Indicates the internal operating Temperature of the inverter.

Troubleshooting: High: Overheating due to poor ventilation, fan failure, or high ambient Temperature. Can cause derating or shutdown.
